Hello, and Welcome to D-A-L.

Zone Alarm

Kerio

are the top two IMHO.

none of those work with 98 anymore he got this securit suite from f-secure but still I'd like to know what free firewalls are compatible with 98 and still provide decent protection?

Thanks.

I've attached a zip file containing versions of both which will setup on 98. (I save these just for this purpose.)


EDIT:
I've tried twice to attach the zip file here to no avail. It could be the size (12.7MB), a glitch on the site, or my system (don't think so though, everything else seems to be fine).

I've uploaded it to my webspace for download. Please advise if you have it so I can remove it. I have 25MB of space, and it's taking up almost half of that.

you can upload it to megaupload or a site like that so it won't take up your webspace. I should be going over there today though to check it out.

I got them will try to install.

Thanks.

the install worked thanks a lot didn't think I'd ever find them.

You're welcome, and thanks for letting me know you've downloaded them.
